This classic California Bungalow is nestled in the beautiful foothills of north Monrovia above Foothill Blvd. From the beautifully landscaped grounds to the many architectural details, most of them original, this home will enchant you with its character and charm. Sit on the covered front porch, or simply look out the living-room windows, to enjoy the birds that visit the front yard and its simple fountain. Savor your morning coffee while sitting on the side porch and looking up at mature trees alive with birds. The spacious living room has hardwood floors, built-ins, French doors and an exquisite Batchelder-tile fireplace that can be found on the Pasadena Museum of History registry. The elegant dining room has a buffet built into a unique recess and French doors to the side patio. The kitchen boasts formica counters, gas stove, tile backsplash and an adjoining charming breakfast room with built-in shelving. There are three bedrooms, including one that can be used as a family room or office. The closets in the other two feature restored, built-in dressers with new self-closing drawers and the original pulls. Most door knobs throughout are original and restored, their sameness lending a subtle harmony. The two bathrooms include a remodeled bath with a subway-tiled shower over a soaker tub, hexagon-tile floor, caesarstone counters and both recessed and vintage lighting. Wide, stepped molding around doors and windows, and matching baseboards, throughout the home gives an air of relaxed elegance, especially the wide crown molding in the dining and living rooms. Additional features include picture-rail molding throughout, hardwood floors throughout, central air and heat, laundry room, multiple sitting areas in the yard with paver stones, detached garage and enclosed yard. Located in the idyllic community of Monrovia, a 2024 'All America City', this home is conveniently close to Old Town Monrovia with its festivals, concerts in the park, weekly Friday night street fair, cinema, restaurants and shops.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
